I would go with the smaller unit, you can fold the larger sheets in half or tear them in half and shoveeach piece through. I would also shove the shreadedfirst-pass pieces through again, if someone REALLYwanted to find your numbers, they could re-assemblethe first-pass pieces!In Korea my unit had a unit the size of the thingsyard workers use to grind up tree limbs! It couldhandle a 2" thick phone book every second and turnedthe results into LINT, not strips of paper!!(We lookedlike Frosty the Snow Man whenever we were done usingit!)
